Questions Answered.

l.. D., WATERBURy.-The Thirteenth New
Hampshire Regiment claims to be the first
command that entered Richmond after its
capture. The Ninth Vermont Regiment also
claims the same honor.
G. Y, Observation-Disclosures the law, the
widows of soldiers who married subsequent
to the passage of the act of March 10, 1886,
are not entitled to the S12 rate. You were
correctly rated at So a month, as you were
not married to the soldier until the summer
of 1886.
E. f. W., EAST ToPsHAM.-Pension money
is not exempt from taxation by the laws Of
this state. The listers are required to put
1t in the grand list the same as any other
money or personal property. Pension money
received since the LIST of April, however,
should not be taxed this year. Deposits in
savings banks not exceeding 81 500 are ex-
empt from taxes.
E. c., HARDwIcK.-This correspondent
writes that he has claim like that of Mr.
Clark of Middlesex, recently decided by the
secretary of the interior and reported in the
WATCHMAN-that his wife was granted a
pension, with several hundred dollars ar
rears, after her death; that he applied to be
reimbursed for the expenses of her last sick
ness and burial, but payment was refused
on the ground that it was his duty, as hus-
band Of the deceased pensioner to pay such
expenses. This correspondent desires to
know if he can have his claim reconsidered
and receive pay according to the decision in
the Clark case. AnsCer.-You undoubtedly
could recover such expenses but for the fact
that claim of S344 has been presented and
paid to another party on this identical &C
count. If you did not assent to the pay
ment to the other party, you may still pre-
vail in collecting the bill. A payment made
to wrong party does not of itself bar the
rightful claimant from receiving his lawful
allowance.

How to Clean Dresses.

Get five cents worth of soap-bark
from the druggist (about tea-cupfuD.
For one dress, take half of it and steep
in about one quart of boiling water for
about half an hour or more; then strain
through a cloth. For silk dress,
while the liquid is warm, take a piece
of white flannel and dip into it at in
tervals, and rub the silk, or satin, with
it till it seems cleansed. When done,
pull the material straight and hang it
to dry; do not iron either the silk or
satin. If the dress is very much soiled,
use clean liquor to rinse it; but do not
use clear water for silk, or it will not
stiffen up well. For wooden dress,
dip the part to be cleansed, or the whole
of it, if needed, into the liquor. This
can be rinsed in the same, after wash
ing, or in clear, warm water. If very
dirty put the dress to soak in tub, in
the liquor, with more water added, be-
fore cleaning or washing. The wooden
goods should be pressed before they
are quite dry. Water in which pota-
toes have been boiled will cleanse deli
cate-colored wooden or worsted goods.
The dress should be wet all over. Use
no soap. Rinse in clear warm water.
Press while still damp. This will not
iniure the most delicate colors. The
liquor in which soap-bark has been
stepped, when used cold, is excellent
for washing blue lawns that are easily
faded. They should be washed with
more water than is used for woolens.-

Save the Paper.

Many housewives regard it as mark
of neatness to burn every scrap of pa
per they can find. In most cases they
do it TO help the fire, though there was
never more erroneous idea than that
paper is good for that purpose. Its
texture is too close, and in large guam
titles it is about as good material to
suppress struggling fire as could be
devised. 1t holds down the carboni-
Gated gas, which is the greatest of all
fire eXtinguishers, and it furnishes very
little heat in proportion to its bulk.
Paper, even of the cheapest kinds, is
far too valuable to be burned, as it has
so many far better uses. AS for burn
ing newspapers, it is almost crime,
when, even though out of date, each
issue contains much that would give
pleasure and instruction to thousands.
1t is good practice for those taking
many papers and magazines to care
fully lay aside those they do not care TO
preserve and donate them to hospitals
reformatories and other institutions
where they will perhaps be the means
of doing greater good than they did to
their original ners.-Cultirotor

Window Plants.

Whether in the greenhouse or the
kindergarten, plants that have done
their best all winter are now being
made ready for their season in the open
air. While they remain within the
increasing heat requires that they have
greater care in ventilation and in free
ing them from insects. Plants that are
taken out in summer, if wanted to
bloom in pots next winter, should be
kept in pots; if turned out in the open
ground, they cannot be satisfactorily
potted again. 1t is much better to start
with new plants from cuttings. Such
plants may often be plunged in the
border, in the pots, with good results.
Pots that are set out should stand on a
layer of coal-ashes to keep out worms.
Such plants should be set in partial
shade, but never under the drip of
trees. Roots of dahlias and cannas,
and bulbs of tuberoses and gladiolus
if laid in boxes of soil, exposed to the
sun during the day and taken in at
night, may be appreciably forwarded
and made ready to plant out.-American

Catarrh to CONSUMPTION,

Catarrh in its destructive force stands next to and
undoubtedly leads on to consumption. It is there
fore singular that those afflicted with this fearful
disease should not make it the object of their lives
to rid themselves of 1t. Deceptive remedies CON
cocted by ignorant pretenders to medical knowledge
have weakened the confidence of the great ma ority
of sufferers in all advertised remedies. They be-
come resigned to life of misery rather than tor.
ture themselves with doubtful palatves
But this will never do. Catarrh must he met at
every stage and combated with all might. In
many the disease has assumed dangerous
symptoms. The bones and cartilage of the nose the
organs of hearing, of seeing and of tasting

ers, too, we often see food of one kind and
another wasted-such as carelessly spilled
flour, little at a time, and bits OF bread,
cake and pie that the little ones have been
indulged in having between meals, not hav-
ing judgment enough with their wee minds
to know whether the stomach demands it, or
whether it is for the satisfaction of a tired
brain (the latter seems more probable by its
being thrown DOWN. And enough in this
way is wasted in many families to easily
support another person, while it is doing an
injury to the little stomachs, which need
rest to give them a good appetite for the
regular meal. 1t is a mistaken favor when
mothers indulge children in this way. 1t
weakens their stomachs beside forming the
habit of waste and uncleanliness, and
making slave of the mother to wait upon
and pick up after them.

Economical SuggestiOns--.NO. 1.

Dear HouSehold:-I would like to give
some helpful suggestions to young house
wives, and hope some of them may not come
amiss to the older ones, to help make house
work less burden and more of pleasure
To do this we must exercise some Thought
for the morrow" There are many ways in
which one can make their work lighter
easier and helpful all around if they will
but study little to find the easier way
Economizing in time, | might safely say
covers the whole ground but TO leave this
unexplained to the young housekeeper it
would not give much light. 1t is not the
poorer of our land who are the most strict
econOmizers, but oftentimes they will throw
away what the rich will save. For instance
few OF them will deny themselves OF vain
pleasure-seeking in one way or another. 1t
not only takes their time land profits them
nothing, but money, too, while their own or
their childrens clothes may be suffering for
Just that time to put them in order, or that
money to buy those comfortable things which
the health of the body demands. To avoid
all such places as are not eevating to the
mind will save many fifty cents in money and
time, and ii would surprise one at the end
OF the year to see how much more they had
gained by staying at home and using that
time and money judiciously. A good in
structive lecture / would advise attending.
Then have known those who complain
that this worlds goods are not equally
